D. A. Carson quotes about
scripture new-testament
The New Testament writers did not invent a doctrine of Scripture they inherited it.
worship wonder sometimes
Despite the protestations, one sometimes wonders if we are beginning to worship, worship rather than worship God.
liars hate wrath
The cliché, God hates the sin but love the sinner, is false on the face of it and should be abandoned. Fourteen times in the first fifty Psalms alone, we are told that God hates the sinner, His wrath is on the liar, and so forth. In the Bible, the wrath of God rests both on the sin (Romans 1:18ff) and on the sinner (John 3:36).
waiting disaster persons
A prayerless person is a disaster waiting to happen.
loving-god knowing-god knows
To know God is to be transformed, and thus to be introduced to a life that could not otherwise be experienced.
understanding sin weak
A weak understanding of what the Bible says about sin is tied to a weak understanding of what the Bible says is achieved by the cross.
expression maps pages
"Study Bible" is the expression used for Bibles that include significant explanatory notes, usually at the bottom of the page, sometimes in the margins. Often a Study Bible will also include some brief articles, photographs of geographical and archaeological sites, fairly extensive maps, and charts that summarize a lot of information.
gospel itself
The Gospel itself is angular. It always has been. It always conflicts. It always challenges every generation. It challenges different generations in different ways.
